We picked Relief Factor as our third choice. They have included Turmeric, Resveratrol, Icariin, and Omega-3. However, it fails to provide any Glucosamine, MSM, and Chondroitin Sulfate. We believed this lowered the value of the product. The drawback is that consumers may need to complement this with an additional supplement.
One aspect that we dislike about this product is the 3-week Quick Start program where it seems you can buy the product for a discounted price. However, the finer details state that if you don’t cancel your order after these initial 3 weeks, you will automatically be billed the very high price of $79.95 plus $6.95 shipping every month when you receive your monthly supply. We are opposed to these automatic shipping schemes as we believe they could be a way to trick unknowing customers who don’t read the fine print. They may also be difficult to cancel. It is always a better idea for the customer to be in control of when their credit card is billed. Continue reading for the full details about Relief Factor.
Is Relief Factor Effective?
This product contains well-known ingredients such as Turmeric, Omega-3, and Resveratrol. We would not describe these ingredients as being specifically targeted towards joint health. We would have liked to see the inclusion of Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM which have been clinically studiedin regards to joint health specifically. We also would have liked to see the inclusion of Piperine, a black pepper extract which can act as a bioavailability enhancer.
Is Relief Factor Safe?
We did not find any ingredients in this product that would cause it to be unsafe, such as un-certified stimulant ingredients or other questionable herbs. As for the ingredients in general, when in their pure form, they are deemed to be a safe supplement if taken according to proper recommendations. There are no reported side effects and they can be taken with most medications. However, we recommend you speak to your doctor regarding the safety of this product (as with any new product you decide to take).
There is a warning on the label that people with sensitive stomachs should take this product with food. Those with allergies to fish and soy should not use this product.
Summary
Relief Factor seems to have the right idea in making their product with some natural ingredients. However, this product does not contain any of the clinically-studied ingredients Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM. We do not appreciate it when companies put customers on an auto-ship program after their first purchase which also put us off this product. And to top it off, the price that you pay on this program is also very high at $79.95 considering what you are actually getting for your money. There are other joint health products available, with better potential and at a lower price.
